This problem, as written, requires a bit of guessing regarding your intentions. My interpretation is that you want to do this division:


2

----------

1 6/7

If that's correct, here's what to do: rewrite 1 6/7 as 13/7 (an improper fraction).

Then divide:

2

-------- This is equivalent to the multiplication (2/1)(7/13) = 14/13 (answer)

13/7
